Photos: Roof Wetting Held In St George’s
Plans to create a new eatery at the Old Pub on the Square location in St George’s continue, with a roof-wetting ceremony held recently to mark the progress.
Hosted by Marico Thomas from FoodHub, those in attendance included Premier David Burt, Mayor of St George George Dowling, Minister of Public Works Lt/Col David Burch, St George’s MP Renee Ming, St George’s MP Kim Swan, and more.
Speaking at the event Mr Thomas said, “We are pleased to be a part of St. George’s. This is a fantastic building; the opportunity to go in and restore it rather than just renovate it has been great. We’ve been able to keep those cedar beams and restore doors and brick, and I hope that when you go through and you have a little tour, you’ll see that I’m really excited about what it represents.
“There’s a lot of food and a lot of opportunity, and also a lot of jobs,” he added.
plp love a photo op ….plp have done very little and almost destroyed st.Georges
lets see tried to strangle the corporation by cutting funding at least the OBA gave them a small tax on the fuel which kept them going. Closed a perfectly good golf course and demolished a perfectly good club house . Closed a volunteer fire station …imagine how that could have assisted in their current shortage of firefighters. Closed the Police station no more boots on the ground increased crime comes with it. Staged a protest against St. Regis yet want the glory of a new Hotel . Want to talk about the Bailey Bridge that had a 5 year life span thats still there 20 years later.What happened to the 12 million the US gave them to fix the bridge…Get the Facts plp dont want St.Georges to succceed
